A review on the current status of dye‐sensitized solar cells: Toward sustainable energy

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 3188-3226, August 2024.
The main components of dye‐sensitized solar cells. Abstract Dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are among the most attractive third‐generation photovoltaic technologies due to their low toxicity, versatility, roll‐to‐roll compatibility, ultralightness, and attractive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs).

Comparing carbon offsets and livelihood benefits in a long‐term reforestation project: Agroforestry versus native timber versus enrichment planting

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 5, Issue 3, July–September 2024.
Looking at different reforestation methods over 14 years in an Emberá Indigenous community in Panama we found that plots with native timber mixtures and monocultures stored three times more carbon than those with agroforestry or natural regrowth. Natural regrowth was less valued by participants due to the abundance of pioneer species, but it helped ...

Co-Inoculation with Beneficial Soil Microorganisms Promoted Growth and Quality of Tabebuia rosea Seedlings

Forest Science, 2021
Abstract Poor seedling quality is a major limiting factor for the success of commercial afforestation and ecological restoration in the tropics. This is commonly due to poor nutrient availability of soil-based substrates used for seedling growth.

Bats and Mayan temples: Bat diversity and the potential for conservation of archeological zones in Yucatan, Mexico

Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 4, July 2024.
The role of archeological zones in biological conservation has been highlighted because they restrict land‐use change, size, and maintenance of upstanding vegetation. We found 23 species from six families and seven guilds, representing 53% of all bat species known from the Yucatan state, including two endangered species for Mexico.

Is interlocked grain an adaptive trait for tropical tree species in rainforest? [PDF]

, 2009
Many trees in tropical rain forest exhibit interlocked grain. This phenomenon was observed, using a splitting method, on 10 trees from different genera in French Guiana. There were rather strong variations between and within trees. Different indexes were

Cost‐effectiveness of management strategies in a nucleation experiment in a tropical dry forest

Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2024.
Cost‐effective, large‐scale strategies are needed to restore degraded ecosystems worldwide. Applied nucleation is one technique that can accelerate succession in tropical forests. However, the effectiveness of irrigation and fertilization in the context of large‐scale applied nucleation in tropical dry forests (TDFs) has not yet been tested.
